Flu Shot Tips for Children |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Influenza is a viral illness and typical flu symptoms include fever, cough, chills, sore throat, headache and muscle aches, which usually begin about 1-4 days after being exposed to someone with the flu.
|
|
Many parents overlook the need for a flu shot for their children. This is unfortunate because most experts believe that flu epidemics begin and spread to adults from younger children.
|
|
All children do not need flu shots. Children who are in one of the high risk groups or have contact with someone in a high risk group, parents should consider getting him a flu shot each year.
|
|
You are in a high risk group when:
• you are around someone with the flu that coughs or sneezes and the germs enter your body through your mouth or nose
• you touch something, such as a door knob or sink faucet, that has been touched and contaminated by someone with the flu, and you then touch your own mouth or nose
|
|
The influenza shot is an inactivated or killed vaccine and is usually changed each year to keep up with the most common strains of the influenza virus that are circulating and most likely to cause infections.
|
|
Flu shot reactions are usually mild, and may include soreness, redness or swelling where the shot was given, fever, and/or aches, and usually only last for 1-2 days. More serious side effects can rarely include a life-threatening allergic reaction.
